| Last month, ABCDlady won an award
from the South Asian Journalist Association (SAJA) yet again. This
time, it was for an article we did on riding the Mumbai trains.
This makes our fourth consecutive SAJA award since 2004 when ABCDlady
first started! What we're most proud about is the level of competition
we were up against. We competed against long-running and established
publications like The Washington Post, Wall Street Journal,
New York Times and others. It's wonderful to see ABCDlady next
to these big names!
So congratulations to author Meenakshi Verma Agrawal and editor
Devika Koppikar, and check out the article when you have a moment!
